TRADE PROGRAM

Section 301 Tariffs

China-origin duties imposed under the Trade Act of 1974

About Section 301

Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974 authorizes the U.S. Trade Representative to impose duties on imports from a country found to maintain unfair trade practices. In 2018–2019 USTR issued four "Lists" (List 1, 2, 3, 4A) of China-origin tariff lines, layering ad valorem duties of 7.5%–25% on top of the column 1 general rate. The lists are administered through Chapter 99 of the HTS — the codes below are the active 99-series subheadings importers must declare alongside the underlying 4–10 digit HTS code.
